Was there really ever any concern? I know that Obama has quit a bad habit to run (MIchelle said run for the presidency? Then quit smoking). The only reason it was mentioned was because McCain did so because of the age and previously reported health concerns.

That is a fact that is pretty obvious. Even with his gruelling schedule and sleep deprivation, he still shows how much energy he possesses. Unlike the other two candidates who are showing signs of fatigue and unrest. One can't get out of his own way and the other is hallucinating. Your good health and energy will carry you to the convention Barack. It will all be over soon.

Hillary 08

Otherwise she should go independent and be our President

We cannot have a continuity of the Bush era with McCain, neither can we risk our futures by entrusting our nation in the hands of an unexperienced candidate

He can play Basketball with young players. I belive he is in excellent health. The change we can belive in is coming very fast.

No surprise there!
I have to admit that McBush's health report is pretty impressive for a 70+ year old. But I wonder if McBush can stay healthy after a couple of years in the white house... Did anyone see how badly Clinton aged over his term? He looks older than Carter!

That is great now let's see what psycho Hillary reports look like. Maybe all the anti-depresses will show up or maybe hidden until after the election. The American People suspect there is something not clicking in that head of hers.

Some people are question what to do about Michigan and Florida. Well unfortunately Obama as well as his Campaign team have for months stalled on this issue until the very end.

If Senator Obama was or had been a true democrat he would have come to the conclusion that the fairest method or solution to the problem is and would have been running new Primary elections in these two states so as not to disenfranchise the voters.

Obama'a Campaign team for strategic reason because all there interested in winning at all cost, have stalled until the DNC has stated that therr is no more time. This is again a sad day in America. If anyone has the chance please view the new movie "RECOUNT" staring Kevin Spacek. This movie recounts the 2000 election debacle. And it is happening again but not only in Florida this time but also in Michigan.

There now will be a cloud over the nomination of Obama's nomination. They should have re-run the Primaries in these 2 states to ensure that all votes were cast and counted reflecting the will of the people in oour 50 states and territories.

Senetor Obama
Forget Iraq because you will be Presedent and if you should be injured out there , it would be a desaster and another chance to go to another war.
You now have a chance to change the USA and the world so just get elected and let John blow smoke up his skirt with his prove yourself

I'm sorry but what don't some of you Dems understand about how this whole FL and MI thing went down.

Nothing underhanded happened. No one arbitrarily punished those two states.

MI and FL knew the rules. They were warned about what would happen. They did it anyway. The knowingly broke the rules.

Clinton, Obama, and Edwards all signed a pledge stating that they would neither campaign NOR PARTICIPATE in elections in those states if they broke the rules.

Now you want them to change all of that? What is to keep a bunch of states from doing the same next year? What is the point of rules if they aren't really rules?
